Crystalline's POV
I wake up to the sound of my alarm. I groan, I don't want to go to school!! I stay at the bed for 5 minutes and got up. I take a bath and wear a black leggings and oversized pink sweatshirt. I pair it with a white sneakers and tie my hair in a messy bun. I'm lazy today so I just put on a mascara and lip balm.(Ignore the phone and the lipstick)
I walk out not bothering to eat. I don't want to stay there knowing something happened yesterday. It makes me want to puke, to make it worse mother is not home.
I stop at the nearest cafe shop and order myself coffee and sandwich. I eat that on the way to school.
As I'm walking to my class, someone bump on me causing me to fall butt first. I look up to see who it was and it was my sister. "What do you want?" I glare at her and stand up. "Sorry, I didn't see you there. I thought you were a wall" then she laughs with her friends. "I suggest to check your eyes up, you need it" with that I walk away but she grab me and push me down.
"What the fuck do you want?!" I yell causing some students to look at us. "You thought, I didn't know about you and Cassius. You two are still together!" My eyes widen, how did she know?
She lean down and whisper on my ear, "I will tell this to mom and dad, so get ready" with that she walk away. Fudge! Mom will kill me! Argh! I hate my life!
I stand up and walk to my class, still thinking of what my mom will do to me.
Time skip(after school)
I nervously drive home scared of what will happen. When I arrive, I slowly walk inside praying for them to not to see me but they did."Lina, come here!" My mother shouted. I shivered and quickly walk to the living room. "Your sister said that you and your boyfriend is not over? What did I tell you?" I look over my sister to see her smirking at me.
"Mom, I'm sorry but I can't do that. I love him and you can't just command me to do something. You are my mom but this is my life!" I shouted out of anger.
"Now you are answering me, you're so ungrateful. Why can't you be like your sister?!" She then slaps me. The slap was so hard that I can't feel my cheeks. I'm on the verge of crying but I hold it in. I touch it and look at her, "You are always comparing me with her but did you know what she really is? Did you know that she always sleeps around? She even sleeps with dad!" I shouted. I can't control it I'm furious now.
"She can never do that! You're always blaming her at things!" She slaps me again and this time I can't hold my tears, they just fall. "Am I even your daughter? Cause I feel like I'm not" with that I ran to my room and lock it.
I can't believe it! They always believe her, why can't she listen to me once. I fall to my bed and cry until I fall asleep.
Next morning
I wake up and rub my eyes. Then I remember what happened yesterday. I'm just gonna surprise Cass, I want out of here. I'm gonna go to the party, I know where it is. I heard a group of students talking about it and I overheard them saying the address. Plus it's been days since I talk to him.I'm just gonna stay here, I still have biscuits here thats enough. I stand up and walk to my bathroom. I look at my reflection on the mirror and I look like a mess. My hair everywhere, my eyes is puffy and my cheeks are red. I touch it and immediately regret it. It fucking stings!
A tear fell from my eyes thinking of what happened. I hate her! I never did anything to her, to them but why are they doing this? I wipe my tears, there's nothing I can do about it. I just don't care anymore. After I finish senior high school, I will go my own way.
I take a bath and wear some comfy clothes. I will prepare for the party later, now I will binge watching Tiny pretty things.
4 hours later
I finish the 7th episode for today and look at the time. I still have 3 hours to get ready. I stretch my limbs and take another bath. After that, I wear make up just a simple one. Then I wear this black lace top and black short to pair with it. I took out my white blazer to cover some skin, lastly I took my black knee high boots. I look at myself in the mirror and I'm happy if the outcome. I never wear this type of clothes but I have one in the closet just in case. I love styling myself up but not I don't do it often.I took a couple of pictures and silently walk downstairs. Thankfully no one's at the living room and the whole house is silent. I unlock my car and drive to the address that I heard.
As soon as I'm close to the house, I hear loud music. I park my car far away and head out. I walk to the front and see a lot of people making out, people vomiting and red cups. I'm not going to drink alcohol, just juice.
When I enter the house, there are people grinding on each other, loud music and party lights. I squeeze my way into the bar and get some water. I watch enough movies that I know that the punch have something mix in it, so I'm not drinking that.
I look around while leaning at the bar. The owner of this house seems like they're rich. It's big, grand and spacious. I stand up and tried to look for Cass.
I find him at the balcony and I'm about to approach him but I see a girl sit on his lap. I look more closely and see my sister and he seems like he didn't care.
I walk beside the door and hide behind it. I don't know why I'm still here, I guess I'm stupid but I want to know more. Curiosity kills the cat and I know I'm going to regret this.
"Didn't you have a girlfriend?" A female voice wondered. "Yeah, what's her name?...Crystalline?" Another one asked. "Girlfriend? More like a bet, I need to be her boyfriend and use her to get close to her sister...which is Maddy. Right babe?" I heard my sister laugh. "Yes babe, and she really thinks you love her. Earlier, when mother scold her for being with you. She yelled that she loves you and blah blah blah" they all laugh and a male voice said. "So you two are together now?" I peek and see them kissing. "Your right! Plus I need her so that I can be included on the popular side. She's nothing to me, worthless and trash" they all laugh and continue drinking.
I didn't realize I'm crying until I heard myself sob. I ran out of there and drive myself to the my safe place. When I reach there I open my trunk and get my blanket and my little tent. It's been a while since I go camping and I want to be away with everyone. I walk to the cliff and set everything up.
As I stare at the view in front of me, my tears just feel until I'm sobbing. Why is this happening to me?! I loved him and this?! I fucking trusted him! I scream as loud as I can, "WHY?!"
I bury my head in my hands and cry. I just want to fucking die, my family and now my boyfriend? What else do you want? I have nothing! That's when I remember, I got Louisa and Giovanni. They said I can come to them when I need help. I'm not planning to go back to my so called 'home'. I could stay with them but now, I'll just stay here and enjoy the view and the silence.
I really hope I'm welcome cause I have nowhere to go. I don't want to my family anymore, plus do they even care if I'm gone? I bet you they'll not be able to know that I'm gone. After all, all they care is my sister.
I went inside the tent and soon after I fall asleep.
Hello! How are you guys? Belated merry Christmas to all of you and a happy new year. I was planning to update on Christmas but I decided to just do it on New year. I hope you like the chapter and have a nice day! Love lots!😘💜
